Ten Second Song Guy does 10 pop songs in the style of Metallica

10 Second Song Guy

Anthony Vincent, a.k.a. the internet’s very own Ten Second Song Guy, has released a video in which he tackles 10 songs in the style of Metallica. He’s accompanied in this adventure by guitarist Eric Calderone, better known on Youtube as 331Erock.

“When I thought of the idea to do 10 Songs in the style of Metallica, I immediately asked my buddy Eric Calderone to join me, because that was the only chance in making this sound as if Metallica really performed these songs,” says Vincent. “Eric is a master of his craft, not only in performance but matching guitar tones. Insane. But yeah, this was therapeutic for me.

“Metallica was my favourite band from when I was 10, and at one point in my childhood I hated anything that wasn’t Metallica. I saw them perform in NYC at MSG with the Symphony Orchestra when I was 12, in November of 1999, and my life was changed forever.. I didn’t realise how much of a privilege it was to behold that until much later in life. Anyway, I’m rambling. This was a lot of fun, hope you enjoy it.”
